About this property

OPEN on beach higher floor 1/1 renovated aug 2023 amazing sunsets from unit pool

$250 fine to your security if you keep the lights on the patio and also if curtains are not drawn from
9pm to 7am due to turtle season.

New AC new furniture new paint new bedding as of Aug 2023

This is a one bedroom one bathroom condo inside the resort of south seas
It has a sleeper sofa bed for two persons but remember it is a sleeper and not as comfortable as a bed it is new but again it is a sleeper sofa

Full kitchen just renovated last year with granite counter tops
The patio is screened in
This unit of mine is in an elevator building not all beach villas have elevators and it is nice to have an elevator
Just steps to the beach and pool
You have use of 3 condo pools
Walking distance to many restaurants and shops plus a Starbucks

Beach is amazing long walks are great and I enjoy them

Elevators are functional but I make no guarantees as if they will be working during your stay due to the fact they are mechanical items I will not do refunds if elevator decides not to work during your stay

Make sure to get travel insurance I strictly enforce the cancellation policy

Also if you have any questions on amenities please ask PRIOR to booking

Great stay in the beach villa

We had a great stay in our beach villa condo for the week. Our host was very accommodating and the unit met our needs very well. It’s nice to see the area recovering from the hurricane. We hope to stay again. Thanks.

Wonderful Location & Property

Overall the stay at this property and the booking process was smooth from start to finish. The owner was very responsive, often returning emails within the hour (if not within minutes). The property location is phenomenal, and just steps from the beach. The unit was nicely arranged, well-stocked, and clean. There are plenty of cooking supplies if you choose to eat in the condo. There are also plenty of restaurants within a few minutes of walking or driving. Our 5 days there were terrific and I highly recommend you put this location on your travel list.

Can't play golf, use the tram, or buy food/beverages at the resort

This is a nice location, but because it was a VRBO situation we were not allowed to use most of the resort or buy food/beverages on-site. This should have been in the description.

DO NOT STAY HERE PLACE IS A HAZARD AND SO IS THE HOST

The place is under construction. Debree, porta potties, refridge in the parking lot, dumpster trucks, danger signs on doors etc. We were the only ones renting in the building. It was clearly under construction. NOTHING in the summary was noted except that the elevator wasnt working. Contacted host, completely unreasonable, misrepresented the property. Neglected to disclose residence was under construction and renovation.

Property with great location. Needs renovation.

Had to clean the floors upon arrival as they left our feet black on bottoms. Didn’t use appliances as we ate out. Refrigerator door rusted on exterior, but inside was clean. Mold on shower head, top of wall, curtain and suprisingly the lampshades in living room were moldy! Thankfully we brought our own sheets and many towels as few are provided. Property described as two floors when there was only one. I am a physician, my wife a lawyer, we will never rent thru Kim again.

Simple but Good Rental

Overall this was an easy rental. There was nothing special about the unit as it felt very stale with all white walls and furniture that was a little outdated. It does have new floors in the main living room but not sold on the rest. The kitchen seemed fine but we didn’t do much in there. The bathroom was dated, very small, but did the job. The shower drains very slow and I was standing in ankle deep water after a short shower. The host, Kim, was responsive before and during our stay but I had to call as I was never sent the actual address so I did not know the unit until arrival. All in all, we chose this unit because of location. Great location and affordable so that was good for a quick trip to Captiva. The interior could stand to be updated with a personal touch to make it more inviting but I would stay again. Keep in mind that the resort and surrounding areas are still under construction so expect that these do not look like they used to.

We enjoyed first and foremost the view from the balcony. Also, we loved walking to restaurants, sto

We also liked cooking in the well equipped new kitchen. Maybe adding paper napkins would be convenient along with the papertowels. Liked the art and soft color decor. Glass table a bit warped. The bathroom needs renovation. Double sinks, new doors, The bedroom, comforrable. The decor, too city like. A textured light colored bedspread instead of maroonish silk. Closet mirrored door need adjusting and the metal sliders are filthy and to be replaced. I would suggest hooks on the BR and Bedroom doors. We did enjoy our stay and loved the location. We walked everywhere. We would consider coming back . Your managers came promptly to replace the torn beach chairs and to address the wet furniture and the refrigerator door seal . Thank you again Kim . We loved Captiva

Disappointing

We have stayed in several other South Seas Plantation Condo's over the recent years, so our comments are based on comparisons. The "check in" process was somewhat stressful. The website did not provide the address to the Condo nor door code. After driving 4+ hours, it took about 45 minutes after we were suppose to check in to know the exact address and door code. Then we discovered the Dishwasher was broken, including the ice-maker in the freezer. We advised the Owner directly, but nothing was corrected during our stay ! The Tub/Shower had mold all over, as well as the Tub/Shower curtain. The Towels were very thin . . . like you would find in a cheap motel. Basically, this bathroom needs a total renovation. The only positive point was the Sunset's off the balcony. The overall condition of the Condo should be priced no higher than $ 125.00 / night !

First Post Pandemic Vacation

The view was amazing and we had easy access to beach and pool. Both were well kept. There are 5 beach chairs and one good umbrella Most beach goers were considerate. But it would be nice to have someone to settle the rowdy ones. We never felt threatened.Note: door codes don’t change between rentals. I was told that will be addressed soon. Restaurants we tried were good but hours seem rather limited. We like to cook and made most of our meals with groceries we purchased before we got to the island. The kitchen is quite well stocked with cook and serve ware. There are 2 beautiful gas grills near the pool. We were hoping to grill our fishing charter catch but the dolphins ate our keepers!! The layout of the condo was accommodating but a little frayed around the edges. The bathroom drains are slow and the shower biting. The shower liner, face cloths and sheets and bedspreads need updating. We asked for some extra towels. The maids took care of it. Kim (the manager) is a very busy pilot and it’s important to communicate well in advance any questions and needs. I do appreciate the fact that the island is still in recovery from Ian but beware there were no elevators working & there is construction M-F for those who might be sensitive to that. I’m sure we will visit South Seas again!!

DO NOT RENT THIS PROPERTY!

Please take the time to read this. I don't want another family to be duped as we were. We rented this unit. This resort is on the beach and has a golf course, tennis courts, fabulous restaurants, tiki bars, pools and much, much more. We were not able to use ANY of it!! You have to book through the hotel itself. Imagine to arrive here and be told you have to get off the resort to do absolutely everything! We spoke to the hotel manager and he felt terrible for us and confirmed that a few owners place the ads on VRBO and do not tell the renter any of this. The ad did not state this and neither did the fine print. We wasted our money. We called the owner directly to express our disappointment and hoped to be offered a partial refund. She was rude. When I expressed that we felt the ad was deceitful I would not be able to provide a positive review on VRBO, she responded "Bring it on, I'd love that" . Very sad that some people would take advantage of customers this way. Condo also had one roll of toilet paper and the dispensers in the shower for soap, shampoo, conditioner and shower gel were all empty.

About the host

Hosted by Kim Dennis

Host profile image
I have been coming to South Seas since my 18th Brithday. I am not going to mention how long ago that was but suffice to say that was a long time ago and I still love it!!!!

We have 9 total units in South Seas that we rent. We absolutely love this beach. The shelling is amazing. There is usually a very nice breeze and we love to sit on the screened in patio and watch the sun set. There is nothing like sitting and watching the sun set.

Why they chose this property

We love to vacation here it is very relaxing and has great sunsets.

• 15 magnificent miles of white sandy beaches and a treasure
chest of shells
• 74.4° annual average air temperature
• 77.5° annual average water temperature
• 7 days a week of trophy fishing
• 20+ miles of tropical bike paths
• 300 species of birds, 50 species of reptiles and amphibians,
and more than 30 types of mammals live here

What makes this property unique

access to beach chairs and beach towels this unit of mine is in an elevator building

I also have beach umbrellas but I do not guarantee a guest has not broken them since so many get broken without anyone letting me know. I do replace them every time I am there and check them for damages but again I do not guarantee them for your stay unless I have been there prior
